    How to do good at Christmas 🎄

  • Hi a way to give to multiple charities is givto.org
    Each month your recipient is given three charities to chose between - like the supermarket token scheme - you chose how much much each month and for how long

  • If you have anyone who loves travelling and animals there are so many charities out there.

    I am getting myself the gift of sterilisation for feral cats in Cyprus, there are over 4 million stray cats on the island. I have personally seen the work that https://fishingforfelines.com/ does around Paphos 

    Another charity that I have personally seen work in Mauritius is https://4pawsrescue.co.uk/ which helps stray dogs in Mauritius which is a real problem and live in some horrendous conditions 

    There are so many charities desperately needing funds to make a difference. Both charities have amazing Facebook pages and would be glad of any likes, shares or donations

    Thank you
